PM Modi, in his speech today at the inauguration of Ma Umiya Dham Ashram, Haridwar, expressed his concerns about the growing problem of alcoholism in the youth.

The honourable PM gave his speech through a video conference and warned that if the problem of alcoholism goes unchecked, then society will be “ruined” in the next 25 years.

Modi praised the Umiya Sansthan for their social work and highlighted the important role that it could play in fighting alcoholism and creating awareness.

So wait… what’s the catch? Why are the Twitterati losing it over just another speech?

Remember the last time when Modi spoke incessantly about black money and demonetisation followed suit? Well, people are worried that this stand against alcohol might be foreshadowing a possible alcohol ban!

Tweets galore, both funny and mildly concerned, have been showing up on Twitter.

1) Wake me up when it’s November 8th!

This 8th November…PM Modi: From tonight 0000hrs Liquor and alcohol will be banned across the country

10) OMG! The most important thing to do!

Wow, guys, maybe we’re escalating this a little too much too soon? It could be just a normal concern or public-pleasing tactic. Or it could very well be a silent herald to the war against alcohol. With Modi, we may never guess!

Either way, we’ll cross that bridge when we come to it. Till then, just relax! Breathe! Take a chill pill! Have a drink… while you can!
